Default Bodywork being done this next week!

I have an 03 Sierra that is white up top with that goldish color on the bottom 2 tone. I had some body damage and Im thinking of having the whole truck painted white because the damage is all on the goldish colered part.

The plan is to have the front bumper replaced and painted white, the mirrors sanded down and painted white, the door handles painted white and paint the rest of the 2 tone white. Also removing the silver trim pieces on the sides and the pinstriping.

Sound like a good plan?

Do you guys think I should color match the front?

Not a fan of the gold, all white will look good. Color match everything and slap some new wheels on it.

Street Scene and Stillen do. You can probably get them other places but that's all I can think of. Street Scene is a little cheaper, maybe Stillen is better.

OK well I think Im going to have to go with the stock bumper for now since I have an appointment on Tuesday to get this work done. What about getting the guy to paint the chrome bumpers front and rear white while hes at it?
